Someone damaged & cracked the glass on the drivers side mirror. If I order the glass, Is this a DIY project?
Anyone know what is involved? It is just straight glass, no driver side warning indicator.

Super easy - 5 mins, no tools needed except maybe a pair of rubber gloves to keep prints off the mirror (and in your case, so you don’t get any cuts from the broken glass)

Instructions on YouTube

Highly recommend upgrading to the aspherical mirror as well while you’re at it.

For a second I thought you were referring to the drivers side window. Some thief damaged mine and costed me $850 for the glass plus whatever the install is going to cost. Definitely not a diy. Getting it done this monday!
